I practice cultivation cautiously in a strange world

Chen Lin was not surprised that the Qixuan Goddess could complete the third chess game.

The opponent's chess level is higher than Luo Xing's, this has been confirmed.

But the other party dared to enter the chess game scene for the third time, probably because Luo Xingxian had been there first and confirmed the situation, otherwise the other party would never be reckless with his cautious character.

What surprised Chen Lin was that the other party was able to draw a map.

According to the information fed back by Luo Xing, although the road guide barrier can be seen after the chess game disappears, it is still dim and cannot be seen very far.

With doubts, Chen Lin took the scroll in his hand.

After unfolding, it is a map.

The map is large and the paintings are very detailed. The other party's painting skills are excellent.

He waved his hand and released a stone table, laid the map on it and looked at it carefully.

Qixuan Tiannv explained: "After completing the third chess game, the chessboard and the players disappeared, and the space in the distance became a lot brighter. I have the pupil secret method, and what I can see is quite real. I thought that Fellow Daoist Chen might feel I was interested, so I drew all the scenes I could see around me.”

"Fellow Daoist Chu is interested."

Chen Lin expressed his gratitude and continued watching.

The map drawings are vivid and you can see that the overall scenery of the chessboard scene is good.

Mountains and rivers, green pines and cypresses, and a large lake in the distance on one side, the breeze blows across the water, causing ripples.

"Huh?"

Seeing this lake, Chen Lin suddenly let out a sigh.

"Why, did Fellow Daoist Chen discover anything?"

Seeing this, Qixuan Heavenly Girl immediately asked.

Chen Lin shook his head and said: "No, I just didn't expect that this weird chess game scene would have such a beautiful scenery."

"Beautiful does not mean safe. Things in the Nightmare Realm make no sense. Fellow Daoist Chen should enter with caution."

"Haha, it's useless even if I enter."

Chen Lin laughed at himself.

He added: "With my current chess skills, I can only complete two games at most. The third time is absolutely impossible to complete. And even if I complete it, I can't go deep without the golden guide."

"That's true, the golden path is too scarce. The Six Mysterious Sects tried their best but couldn't find it."

Qixuan Tiannu showed a deeply approving expression.

Then he handed the box in his hand to Chen Lin.

"This is the golden nightmare coin I got from the third game. Please keep it, Fellow Daoist Chen. Even if I have completed all the tasks in this scene, I will recover my body next and do not plan to explore the nightmare world again."

"Then I wish Fellow Daoist Chu that all his wishes will come true. I will cut off the identity token. If Fellow Daoist Chu wants to see me in the future, just project in."

Chen Lin took the box and expressed his understanding.

Not everyone is willing to explore the nightmare world.

The other party will complete the third chess game, so he should have the intention to return the favor. Now that the favor has been repaid, he is naturally unwilling to take risks again.

Qixuan Tiannu didn't say anything more, and after giving a slight bow, she exited the space.

Chen Lin immediately cut off the clone token.

His transaction with Liuxuanmen mainly involves gold nightmare coins, which can be delivered in a projected state. If there are other items that need to be traded, the clone token can be bound to other people.

Without thinking much, he focused on the map again.

The main thing to look at is the lake in the farthest place.

After looking at it for a while, Chen Lin touched his storage bracelet and took out a bamboo roll.

After unfolding it, it was placed on the stone table.

There is also a map on the bamboo scroll.

When he was still in the spirit and demon world, the fortune teller gave it to him to trade bone fragments to enter the secret realm of Heaven.

The fortune teller at that time said that this was a treasure map, pointing to a treasure of destiny.

However, there was neither interface information nor specific location information on the map, so he never took the initiative to look for it. After so many years, he had somewhat forgotten it.

Chen Lin put the two maps together.

Immediately he felt refreshed.

The parts of the lake depicted on the two maps, as well as the scenes around the lake, are 99% similar!

The only difference is that the map drawn by Qixuan Tiannu is centered on the position of the chess game, while the map on the bamboo scroll is centered on the lake.

"In the nightmare world?"

Chen Lin was surprised.

He never expected that the treasure map pointed to a nightmare scene!

What surprised him even more was that he encountered such an unexpected place.

Destiny is really unpredictable.

Chen Lin observed and thought.

Finally, I felt that the diviner should not have such a powerful method. If the other party could predict the future, he would not be trapped in the spirit and demon world for so many years and never find the secret realm of the sky.

"Could it be related to the Law of Destiny Xiaocheng?"

Chen Lin thought of a possibility.

As soon as he advanced the Law of Destiny to a small level, Qixuan Tiannu entered the chess game scene. Not only did he successfully complete the third game, she also had special eye skills that allowed her to see the situation in the distance and drew a map for him.

Too much of a coincidence.

It is difficult not to suspect that it was interfered by the power of fate.

However, he did not take the initiative to use his talent. Logically speaking, this should not happen, and the small success of the law does not seem to be so powerful.

Chen Lin was puzzled.

He shook his head and stopped guessing.

No matter what happens, wait until he comes back from Fairy Tale Town.

Putting away the bamboo scroll and map, Chen Lin returned to the real world.

Two months later.

After precise calculations, the story contest is about to begin.

In order to prevent calculation errors and to obtain an invitation letter to participate in the story contest, Chen Lin decided to enter the Fairy Tale Town scene one month in advance.

The secret room was heavily guarded by formations, and Xiaocao was responsible for guarding it. Then he took out the death-free gold medal and let the aura of the nightmare world envelope him.

fairytale town.

"Brother, do you want a box of matches?"

As soon as Chen Lin stood firm, he heard a childish voice next to him.

He immediately took precautions and observed the situation.

Then he discovered that he was at the entrance of the Grand Theater, the same place where he was excluded last time.

This made him feel relieved.

He was really worried that the landing point would be fixed on Lilia's hill, which would be difficult.

After looking around for a while, Chen Lin's eyes fell on the side, where stood a little girl wearing a floral cotton-padded jacket and braids.

The other party was pushing a two-wheeled wooden cart with boxes of matches on it.

The little match girl?

Chen Lin was shocked and confused.

After looking at it carefully, I suddenly felt a chill in my heart.

This is not a puppet!

Although the little girl has a sallow complexion and looks a little numb, she is definitely a living creature.

"Brother, do you want a match? My matches are very useful and can light anything."

The little girl looked forward to selling to Chen Lin again.

Chen Lin did not respond.

The situation was unclear, so he didn't dare to make random conversations for fear of causing an accident.

But he also wants to buy it

Buying and selling in the nightmare world is in compliance with the rules, and the purchased items can be used as media.

He glanced around and saw that except for a few puppets performing talents, there were no other creatures.

Seeing the little girl pushing the wooden cart away in disappointment, Chen Lin hesitated and asked, "How to sell it?"

After saying that, he immediately put himself on high alert and stared at the other person closely.

The little girl did not appear abnormal, but her eyes lit up and she quickly said: "A box only costs one gold coin. Big brother, can you buy a box?"

As she spoke, the little girl picked up a box of matches from the wooden cart, with a trace of prayer in her eyes.

A gold coin...

The corner of Chen Lin's mouth twitched.

You have to reject it subconsciously.

The so-called gold coins are gold nightmare coins, and the price is too high.

But seeing the pleading in the little girl's eyes, he thought for a moment and took out a gold nightmare coin from the nightmare world storage bag and handed it to the other party.

"Okay, then I'll buy a box."

Chen Lin was smiling all over his face and his tone was very kind.

Of course he would not take out a precious gold nightmare coin out of pity. There are so many poor people in the world, and no matter how rich he is, he can't help them.

What's more, the opponent is a creature from the nightmare world.

He is not arrogant enough to feel compassion for the creatures in the nightmare world.

But the other party can move freely on the streets and sell items, so his identity must be somewhat special.

What Chen Lin thought was that by using this to form a good relationship with the other party, it might be helpful in the future.

And he is also afraid that if he doesn’t buy after asking, he will break the rules.

"That's great, thank you big brother!"

Seeing that Chen Lin was willing to buy it, the little girl jumped up with excitement, hurriedly took the gold nightmare coin, and then put the match into Chen Lin's hand.

"It's better now, grandma is saved!"

After the transaction was completed, without waiting for Chen Lin to say anything else, the little girl pushed the wooden cart and left quickly, disappearing around the corner of the street.

Chen Lin watched the other party disappear before looking back.

Then open the matchbox.

His expression suddenly froze.

There was only one match in Nuo Da's matchbox!

He looked at the lonely match and then at the place where the little girl disappeared, feeling as if he had been deceived.

However, he didn't originally think that the matches would be any kind of treasure. It didn't matter whether they were one or ten. The main thing was to see if they could be used as a medium.

Thinking of this, Chen Lin sealed the matchbox again and carefully sensed the aura of the nightmare world on it.

After making sure that the aura above was strong enough, he nodded.

In any case, a media item is obtained.

In this case, the gold nightmare coins are not a waste. Otherwise, if he cannot get the top three in the story competition and cannot get the physical reward, it will be difficult to come in again after being excluded.

There is only one gold medal and it can only be used once.

As for the channel through which the black arrows came in, there was a high probability that it could no longer be used. Even if it could be used, he would not use it. He did not want to fall into Lilia's hands again.

"This friend is really generous with his money. I wonder if he is interested in becoming my client?"

As soon as Chen Lin put away the matchbox, he saw a figure walking from the side of the theater.

Just one glance left him stunned.

"Traveler?"

The man in front of him was covered in copper coins, and his attire was basically the same as that of the traveling merchant he had met before.

But not alone.

Because this is a woman.

Although he was wearing a copper coin suit, he still couldn't hide his graceful figure. He also held a rattle in his hand, shaking it from time to time to make a booming sound.

"That's not accurate. He should be a high-end traveling merchant."

The female foot trader smiled and corrected her.

Chen Lin was pleasantly surprised to meet a traveling merchant here.

Traveling merchants are special existences in the nightmare world. They can trade many strange treasures and learn a lot of secret information.

"I wonder what your name is?"

Chen Lin cupped his hands.

Foot traders can communicate normally without worrying about anything.

"My name is Yuan Qing, a four-star high-level travel merchant. As long as the transaction conditions are met, I can take out ordinary treasures."

The female foot trader kept a smile on her face and looked very professional.

Chen Lin's heart moved when he heard this.

The foot merchant he met before seemed to be called Yuan Wu, and his level was only two stars. Later he was upgraded to three stars, and this one was actually four stars, so his level was indeed not low.

"I used to know a traveling merchant named Yuanwu. I wonder if he is related to you?"

Chen Lin plans to establish a relationship.

However, the female foot trader shook her head, "Yuanzi is not a surname, but a code name. I don't know the person you are talking about."

So that's it.

Chen Lin nodded slightly, this was considered inside information.

"I wonder what your transaction terms are?"

He continued to ask.

Traders have their own set of rules, and they can't just trade if they want to.

“It’s very simple, you can make a single transaction, and the application fee for each transaction is one gold coin.”

"You can also purchase membership rights with one hundred gold coins at one time, which will not only waive the application fee each time, but also enjoy transaction discounts."

After a pause, the female foot merchant continued: "You can also use one thousand gold coins to purchase my senior membership. That way you will not be subject to any transaction restrictions, the discount will be greater, and you can even have the right to call me to your door for transactions once a year!"

Deliver food!

Chen Lin immediately thought of Li Fuyao's privileges in the Zhiwu County scene.

However, Li Fuyao, a foot trader, was only from the Lower Yuan Domain, so he was definitely not as high-level as him.

Unfortunately, although the authority is good, he does not have the ability to obtain it.

One thousand gold nightmare coins is something I can't even dream of.

Even if he had one hundred gold nightmare coins, he couldn't come up with it. If he had any, he wouldn't be able to use it on this.

"Forget membership, I can't afford it. If it's a single transaction, do I need to pay the application fee first, or negotiate a deal first?"

"Pay the application fee first and then proceed with the transaction. That's the rule."

The female foot merchant said of course.

Chen Lin frowned.

I couldn't help but ask: "What if you can't get what I want to trade after the fee is paid? Can I still get it back?"

"cannot."

The female foot trader answered immediately.

Then he explained: "This is also a rule. A gold nightmare coin is the threshold for trading with a four-star walking merchant. I have no right to cancel it."

"But don't worry, I have an unimaginable amount of treasures on my body. There will always be something you can use. It just depends on whether you can come up with equivalent trading items."

Seeing Chen Lin's silence, the female traveler added: "A high-roller who can freely use gold coins to buy matches shouldn't be reluctant to pay the application fee of just one gold coin, right?"

"I am a four-star travel businessman, and my reputation is absolutely guaranteed!"

Chen Lin was still hesitant.

He did have a lot to buy, including some secret information, but it was really hard to accept that he had to throw away a gold nightmare coin in vain every time he made a transaction.

The key is that if the transaction fails, there will be no refund.

Pure domination terms.

"Okay, I'm going to participate in the story contest. After I finish participating, I'll come to you to trade, how about that?"

Chen Lin asked tentatively.

If I can get first place in the story contest, I will receive ten gold nightmare coins. In that case, I can afford to waste one.

If you fail to get the Golden Nightmare Coin, you have no choice but to give up this opportunity.
